Traveling with my dog Vedi 🐾

Description

Learning new, cool skills really motivates me. I'm an open-minded, proactive worker looking for places, that enrich my travels. I enjoy crafty tasks, wood work and car fixing just as much as creative tasks, like photography, drawing or painting. I'm quite adventurous, always curious and I love intercultural exchange.

Additionally, working with animals really soothes my soul, even so much, that I still do it, though I'm a bit allergic. Since January 2024 I am travelling with my dog Vedi. He's an Armenian stray dog and I found him on the road while traveling the country. He is a very kind, people-pleasing fella, easy-going and - I would say - quite well-behaved.

More details about your skills

Here's what I learned so far:

- FARM

I have experiences in horse-riding (10 years), did frequent working holidays on horse riding farms in Germany, I worked with camels in Austria on a farm, once volunteered on a cow farm too and worked with more than 100 stray dogs in Romania. Cleaning stables, taking care and feeding animals are nothing new to me.

- WOOK WORK & HOUSE

I built the interior of my camper van myself, which is when I learned how to work with wood. For the past year, I helped building houses, amongst others while volunteering, meaning that I built walls, I know how to use bitumen, I know how to insulate walls and so on. Thus, I can use most working tools and know the respective safety measures.

- COOKING

I love cooking, preferably vegetarian, and I love being creative with food. I can contribute with local German cuisine, but also international dishes. Also, I have experiences with cooking for groups (up to 20 people).

- CAR

I did an internship in a car repair shop for half a year (a day/week), meaning that I can do basic things like changing tires or the oil filter. Additionally, fixing is something I need to do frequently, since I am solo-traveling with my old-ish van (built in 2005)

- LANGUAGES

I speak German and English fluently. Also, I'm learning Russian (currently A2 level) and French (B1).

- KIDS

I have been a babysitter for some time with children of different ages (half a year up to 10). Additionally, I've been a dancing coach for two years for adolescent kids.

- IT

I worked as a content writer for most of my "professional life", and I know basic SEO tools. Thus, I can help you out building a website, create or manage content and so on.

As you can see, I know a bit of everything and chances are high, that I also know something about stuff, that is not enlisted above. If something is totally new to me, I will gladly learn it.
